a mix of cm's and my enb.. but mostly his

rashbeep - Look's great. Did that affect your fps like the experiment I made?

well his preset by default is extremely demanding (could barely crack 20fps at 1440p) probably due to running things like reflections, complex il, really high quality ao, etc. i dialed all those settings back to what i had them at and the fps hit is about the same as what i had before.

I think I'm just gonna go back to vanilla textures soon, I can't even play my game for long periods of time anymore without the game lagging half to death, or not even loading anymore. But I ain't ever getting rid of my ENB.

After I fried my GTX 670 I got my hands on a 8800GT card for the time being until I get a new card (Have my eyes on a Asus GTX 670 4gb). There was a big difference in performance

Now I can barely run ENB with all effects turned off except for Detailed shadows and with Skyrim .ini settings set to low.


Anyway here is how I have done the overcast Rain weather for the "Falkreath" region.

Overcast Rain Day, Vanilla


Overcast Rain Day, ELE


I have not added, edited or removed any cloud textures (pure vanilla textures) I have just changed some cloud values such as RGB values, also this weather is not finished yet.

JawZ, old chap, we're on the same boat. I fried one of my two GTX 680 a couple of days ago...... after playing Mass Effect 2, of all games

Luckily, the RMA is successful, and I'm probably going to end having a new card. Here's to both of us getting two good products

And overcast looks great, way better than vanilla

At least you did it while gaming I did it through short circuiting some of the transistors when installing a new cooler (Arctic Accelero Hybrid) I forgot to put on the insulation tape and just put on some glue and a couple of passive alu fins on them and now my graphics fan speed is up to 200% and no image I rebuilt the whole computer for better airflow and forgot one thing out of a hundred or so things I changed

I don't think it was entirely ME 2 fault though

Thanks though the water reflections is a bit intense though. Hopefully it is not tied to the thing I currently think it is so I can change it without changing the look too much. Also I have yet to work on any of my weather imagespaces so expect some fine tuning of all the weathers in the future

I tried my best to achieve a desaturated look without actually desaturating it like Bethesda had done.

Also vanilla used ~52% of the day time settings, in ELE I have made it so it uses ~92% of the day time settings so far, will see how it works out in the end.

Pure excellence in this gallery, you guys/gals tweak like warrior poets.


@--JawZ--,

Hey welcome back!! And you're back with some awesome weather news....today's forecast, rain.

Too bad about the card, hopefully it's not too long of a wait until you get that beast, damn!

I was planning on doing my own weather in the CK, I love the results I've seen from you and Confidence-Man, but after seeing how your recent developments are turning out (the clouds look amazing) I'll probably just be reinventing the wheel, so to speak. Maybe I'll get bored and have a crack at it anyways, I like tinkering just for fun. I really need to talk to you about this in greater detail, but I'm pressed for time at this moment.

Here are some shots with the True Vision ENB (Natural). It's hard to explain why this one is still my favorite, even though it seems like my least popular ENB. Oh well, this is the "mama" ENB.

What a horrible night to have a curse

Thanks , hehe

I'm actually going to talk with a friend who lend me the 8800GT and also works at a computer store too see what will happen, if I get a new card or some money back from the guarantee. I would rather have the money so I can upgrade to slightly better 670 card. I had a MSI GTX 670 2GB with the reference "pain-in-ass" cooler. Noisy and hot as with all Nvidia coolers

He has done a very good job with his weather changes indeed In a way yes especially since there are two ENB "veteran" users who are creating two different kind of weather modules to go alongside ENB RLO and CoT focuses on non ENB use and that makes it very hard to get some good looking ENB presets, hard not impossible also they don't seem to know how all the ENB features affect the weathers and general lighting as good, at least that's the impression I've got when from those mods.

ELE - Weather module when it's finally released will be open for the end users to tweak it as they see fit for their own presets and upload that tweaked module with their preset, but during the ALPHA and BETA stage of the module I would prefer it if no one would re-upload it to some other site with their own tweaks to the ELE - Weather module.

I started working on ELE so that ENB pro users (which is the most likely users to do any CK edits) would have a good base to start off on, so they would only have to make small adjustments to some CK settings to better go along with their ENB preset. Though I strive to make it as compatible as I can but in the end it is all about how much a ENB preset has been changed from it's "vanilla look" values and revamped it.

Well if you have any questions about the Creation Kit regarding Lighting in any way just shoot me a PM when you got the time and I will try to answer your questions as best as I can


By the way nice pictures

Really dig the lighting and detail of the "Kyo" shoot


EDIT:

Not too shabby looking with a vanilla ENB preset alongside ELE

Bronze316 - Nice pics and narration

Tried Confidence Man's files with my usual setup and the frame rate was better, seemed the same as what I usually get
